As the ball dropped @ Times Square-was a hit!
Though I was nervous about how this work turn out, it was amazing. Our guests got into character dressing the part and staying in character throughout the game. My husband had several questions and was concerned that parts didn't make sense to him. The company responded quickly and assured us it would work. My husband, being the doubting Thomas he is, still wasn't convinced but in the end they were right! Our guests had a great time and many expressed how much more fun it was than just a typical New Year's party where folks just stand around drinking and eating. We began at 7:30 and it was solved by 11:30. Perfect time to turn on the TV to watch the ball come down.

What a fun time!
Purchased this for a New Years Eve party. Everyone had a blast, even the reluctant ones ;) Very easy to understand and prepare. Creative clues and storyline. I will definitely be purchasing another one!

Great Fun!!
This product led to a hilarious and fun night with 16 of our best friends. The clues and plot were fun and easy to follow and with a little creativity you can take on these roles and have a blast!
